Jack Powell Chambers, 81, passed away peacefully on February 20, 2026 surrounded by his loving family. Born on May 17, 1944, Jack lived a life defined by hard work, deep love, and unwavering devotion to Jesus and his family.

He was a simple man who enjoyed spending time with his family. Tending to his cows, with his trusty companion Lucy by his side. He took great pride in caring for his yard and maturing his roses. He delighted in seeing new baby calves on the ground and eagerly anticipated the hummingbird migration in full swing. To him, those signs of renewal were small miracles-reminders of life, growth, and the beauty God placed in the world around him.

Jack was a hardworking man who believed in providing for those he loved. He led by example, teaching his children and grandchildren the value of dedication, integrity, and perseverance. The most profound statement in Jack's life was when he gave his heart fully to God and was baptized in Jesus' name. He dedicated the remaining years of his life serving others and God.

Jack was preceded in death by his beloved wife of sixty-one years, Dorothy Chambers, the love of his life; his beautiful daughter, Pamela Chambers; his parents, Jack Floyd and Lillie Mae Chambers; and his sister, Verta Sue Lawrence. 

Jack is survived by his loving daughters, Laura Chambers; Phyllis Phillips and husband Ricky; and Penny Martin and husband David. He was a proud and devoted grandfather to Samantha Reis and husband Ramon; Jason White and wife Marissa; Chad White and wife Natalee; Macie Martin and husband Baldemar Sandoval; and Megan Mendez and husband Nelson.

Jack’s greatest joy was his growing family. He adored his great-grandchildren: Lilianna and Lyondru Reis; Trayton and Teagan White; Cayden and Kelbee Franklin and Holden White; Heidi and Hatti LaFrance; Baldemar Sandoval Jr.; Lucas and Alex Mendez; and Baby Girl Mendez. He also leaves behind numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and many dear friends who will cherish his memory.

The phrase we will miss the most is, "Hey, this is PawPaw Jack..." 

So many smiles began with those words just hearing his voice on the other end.

This is not goodbye-it is "we will see you soon."
